Practico Costs Roundtable

Last week saw our second breakfast meeting held at The Devonshire club, here in London. A very enjoyable and informative event, chaired by our Andy Ellis, Jeremy Morgan QC, Alex Hutton QC and Jamie Carpenter tackling the thorny issues of the day. We thought it would be useful to provide some case notes from the event.

New Bill Format

While there appears to be some delay having the precedent available on the CPR website, please email for a copy of the precedent in PDF form. We also have fully functioning Excel files if you would like to discuss implementation.

The court criticised the claimant’s budget as being “unreliable, disproportionate and unreasonable” and went on to set new budgetary figures setting maximums that the claimant could recover in each phase of the litigation, giving consideration to both past and future costs.
